Hi,
I have been trying to get hold of a copy of Steele's book "Common Lisp-
the Language" 2Edition.I have tried my local book shops plus a few larger
ones all to no avail.Can anybody tell me if this book is in print in
the UK-and if so any shop which can sell me a copy via(snail) mail-I
can only pay via cheque!
It would be nice if somebody who does have a copy could post the ISBN
number of it,I might be able to get a second hard book search done.
Thanks for any help!
Ian

I can't help you with UK shops, since I'm in the US, but the ISBN is
1-55558-041-6.

I tried to order a copy some months ago. After a couple
of month of waiting I had been told that is out of print, with
no plan to reprint it. We have to be happy with the html version.

I even went to the states to get a copy of this book, but no chance! Than I
realized why. It's online as HTML and there is donwloadable version to print
it by yourself. The HTML version is unfortunately not to read at home in
your bed :)

CLtL2:
Nice to have this important reference in a hypertext file. But...
What is the easiest way to browse through an HTML file?
Can a HTML file be printed? If not, where do I find the printable version?
Thank you.

Some of you were seeking for copies of Cltl2. I don't know if you were
successful, but I just saw two copies in a bookstore in Hamburg,
Germany. I'm sure they handle international shipping. This is Boysen
+ Maasch Buchhandlung, phone is +49 40 / 30 20 70 -2 (main) or -219
(orders) or -212 (fax). If they clain not to ship overseas please drop
me a note and I'll see what I can do.
